Biography

Weaving guitars reminiscent both of David Grubbs and the Velvet Underground, electronicpatchworks of vintage synthesizers and intense drums pulled off directly from the 70s, Yeti Lane may havefound a magical recipe.You know the saying : every end is a new departure: and Yeti Lane have no other lesson to teach us as theyare three-quarter of oxygen-fueled folk unit Cyann & Ben (who released a trilogy of albums on both sides ofthe Atlantic) reborn with a new body and new moniker.Yet Yeti Lane is first and foremost a brand new band, born in the midst of a creative blowup and ofa crave for rebirth rather than in the sad days of a collapse (the three members Ben, LoAc and Charlie stillhave to deplore the departure of Cyann): after a definitive change of name to hasten the final phase ofmutation, the new adventure began in the first days of 2008. The three musicians turned their back on theethereal atmospheres of their previous band and started experimenting with the more immediate dynamics ofrhythm driven indie rock and a whole a new playground of possibilities: elastic pop melodies, tribal beats,krautrock synths and hypnotic guitars.The trio then hastened to composing and recordings tracks in their new studio in order to capturetheir reborn creativity. Songwriting was immediately precise and polished. Rather than turning their back onthe demands of the pop song format, they toyed around with it by breathing an unheard sense of the epic anderudite arrangements into it, and experimenting both with the DIY tradition and rock traditions. Displayingan impressive prototype of modern psychedelics, Yeti Lane quote British folk music, Akron/Family, AnimalCollective, Deerhoof or The Fiery Furnaces but know what they owe to Syd Barrett, Kraftwerk or theFlaming Lips.Yeti Lane, Yeti Lanes first album, is a piece of music which illuminates with every new listen,through its atmospheres, beats and melodies as much as through its words, tells of separations and difficultiesconcluded by resolutions and teachings. Toward a new departure.
